Top Lawmaker Says Obama Spends More Time on Brackets

House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) hit back at President Obama for saying he doesn’t put a priority on achieving a balanced budget, The Hill reports.

Said McCarthy: “How can a president not want to balance the budget? How does he forgot what he said? One of his first goals in the first four years was to cut the deficit in half. Now he doesn’t care. He doesn’t even produce a budget. I’ll bet you this. I bet you he spends more time filling out his March Madness brackets than he does writing a budget.”
